JPEG 'Date&Time' is lost when files transfered

Hi
This is really annoying - can anyone help pls? I take photos on camera and download into iPhoto. Friends give me their photos too etc. iPhoto orders these correctly by date (when the photo was taken), regardless of the file name (DSC0097 etc) as there can be many different file labels, depending on he source. However, when you copy the file to a new folder, eg to external hard disk, the file loses the original Date/time info. The 'Date Modified' or 'Date Created' of the new file is simply the date of tranfer of this new file. How can you ensure the original date and time information is retained?
thanks

iPhoto gets the date and time of the Photo from the Exif metadata that is part of the Photo’s File. When you export to the Finder the file is arranged by the File data, because the Finder is not saavy to the Exif. However, open the exported file in a photo app and you will see the date and time are correct.
Organisation in the Finder is alpha-numeric. So one way to duplicate the listing is to batch the titles of the photos using Photo -> Batch Change command. Give the pics consecutive numbers and export from iPhoto using the File -> Export command. Set the Filename to Title.

Is their way to prevent a form data from being lost when a validation fails

Is their way to prevent a form data from being lost when a validation fails?

So I would use APEX_COLLECTION (there is some information in APEX documentation).
Read all data you need to keep after submit and save them to your collection. Then, if validation fails, show report with data not from base, but from your collection. You have to create process, which creates collection, and you need to modify your report definition to get data not only from DB but also from collection.
If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Why are date and time strings lost when indexing an array in a for loop

Hi,
I have an application where i'm reformatting data from a spreadsheet for graphical display on a LabVIEW dashboard.
the original spreadsheet has date and time values in separate columns, and i'm merging them and converting to a timestamp value. But something's not working. Does anyone know why the string value is lost when the array indexes into this for loop?

Can you attach your VI with some typical values? (e.g. create in indicator on the 2D array, run your VI, then turn the indicator (now containing data) into a diagram constant). Place the FOR loop related code and that diagram constant into a new VI and attach it here.
How many times does the FOR loop run? Could it be that the last element of each 1D array is an empty string? (unless you put a wait inside the FOR loop, you'll never see the other elements in the probe)

HT1766 how can i recover calendar data that i lost when converted to icloud

i have lost most all of my data on my iphone when i went from mobilme to icloud...is there any way to recover it?

Hi, Mike.
It sounds like you're trying to convert a PDF (which contains a "document open" password) to Microsoft Word. Is that correct? Which product or service are you using to do this conversion - Adobe CreatePDF or Adobe Acrobat or some other product?
CreatePDF cannot currently convert password-protected PDFs to Word. You will typically get an error which says that conversion cannot proceed due to password protection. Acrobat can convert password-protected PDFs to Word, provided you have the password and can provide that at the time you open the PDF in Acrobat.
If you would like to see CreatePDF better handle password-protected PDFs, please add that to our Ideas page.
Thanks.

How to write Date/Time property of tdms file

On the root page of the tdms file, there is a built-in property called "Date/Time" in the first row.
I would like to use it to save the time stamp when the tdms file is created. But in the help file,
I only find the following property constant. So, how can I write to the "Date/Time" property field?
Property
Constant
Data Type
Name
TDMS_FILE_NAME
String (char *)
Description
TDMS_FILE_DESCRIPTION
String (char *)
Title
TDMS_FILE_TITLE
String (char *)
Author
TDMS_FILE_AUTHOR
String (char *)
Thanks for any idea or suggestion.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Not sure if this is exactly what you want, but have you tried this?
CVIAbsoluteTime CVItime, *t = NULL;
TDMSFileHandle deH = 0;
// Create TDMS file and set some properties
errChk (TDMS_CreateFileEx (file, TDMS_Streaming2_0, TDMS_ByteOrderNative, 0,"example.tdm", "someText", "title", "author", &deH));
GetCurrentCVIAbsoluteTime (&CVItime);
errChk (TDMS_SetFileProperty (deH, "Date/Time", TDMS_Timestamp, CVItime));
// Save and close file
errChk (TDMS_SaveFile (deH));
TDMS_CloseFile (deH);
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

Jpeg date/time adjust, does it recompress?

If I edit the date time taken will this recompress my file?
also is the rotation of a photo in meta data?

Changing the date, caption, notes, star rating, or map location won't recompress a JPEG. These fields are stored in the file's metadata section, separate from the actual image.
If you rotate a JPEG in the Editor, it will recompress it.
If you rotate a JPEG in the Organizer, it won't recompress it, as long as its pixel height and width is divisible by 16. If they aren't, PSE will warn you and will create a new version for the rotated image.
Also, if you have the option Edit > Preferences > Files > Rotate JPEGs Using Orientation Metadata set, then PSE rotates a photo by changing an industry-standard metadata field, not by rotating the actual image. But I don't recommend using that, since many programs don't understand that field.

Battery allowed to discharge and Date/Time settings lost

My wife left her MBP opened and unplugged. The battery completely discharged. When she powered the computer with a power cord, the Date/Time were completely wrong. She also lost her network settings.
To me, this sounds like the internal (bios) battery has a minimum voltage. Does anyone have some insight to this before I go struggle with the Genius Bar?

I had the same problem; I let it go, as it seemed to be fine after charging.
Now I've just started up with a full charge - and had the same problem!
Does anyone know if the date & time etc settings are kept from a seperate battery (one of those tiny lithium jobs) or if it uses a "trickle" off the main battery? Has anyone else experienced this?
I will call support for this as the machine's only 3 months old.
Insight appreciated...!

How do you vary the Date/Time stamp format in File Adapters

In the receiver channel of the File Adapter where you specify the 'File Name Scheme', you do have the option of specifying a 'File Construction Mode' of 'Add Time Stamp'. How can you specify a different Date/Time stamp format ( eg MM/DD/YY vs YYYYMMDD vs MMDDYY, etc. ) without changing the Date/Time stamp for the entire SAP system? Also, can you control where the Date/Time stamp appears in the filename?

Hi,
There are many threads discussing the same issue. Go thro the following:
Dynamic file name (Date) in Receiver File Adapter
Receiver File Adapter - TimeStamp
Bhavesh's reply in above thread:
You can use Adapter Specific Identifiers and then change the file name in the mapping. Append the tiem stamp in the format that you want and so on.
Just use this code in an UDF,
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String SourceFileName = conf.get(key);
java.text.SimpleDateFormat dateformat = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat( "yyyyMMdd" );
dateformat.format( new java.util.Date() );
String newfilename=SourceFileName+dateformat;
// change to new file name
conf.put(key, newfilename);
return "";

How can I make the current date/time be sent when emailing as XML?

I'm creating a form for a customer to use for submitting print jobs. This customer will be emailing the XML form data, which will in turn be converted into a production order. I'd like to make the PDF form capture my customer's system time, so that I know when they filled out the form. I COULD just leave that up up the customer and use required current date and time fields, but that provides the ability for the customer to falsify that information.
Is there any good way to capture the current date/time in the XML data, so that the customer doesn't need to nor has the ability to?
Any suggestions would be great!

You can use the following methods getHours(),getMinutes(), and getSeconds() from the date object to obtain the values for hour,minute,and second.

Showing Title and date/time info in exported file

I am trying to export a group of photos into a file to then compress and e mail. How do I get the title and date/time info for each photo to export as well and be a part of the file?

You'll need to upgrade to iPhoto 08 or later to write that metadata to the file on export.

Date/time stamp issue when transferring vids/pics to computer. Help please.

Hi, i am having an issue when transferring my vids/pics from my Z2 to my PC.
On all my previous phones when transferring media to my PC it would be copied and labelled with a date stamp followed by a picture number- an example being 2014-01-13- 0123. This has always made organising and finding my pics/vids in there relavent folders an eay task.
The problem i am now faced with is when i transfer pics/vids from my Z2. The pictures are stamped with DSC_0001 for example and the videos with MOV_0001. This means when on my PC i have to examine each file individually to find out its date and time of origin.
Even more of an headache is everytime i have transferred files from my Z2 and then take more pics/vids and then try to transfer them to my PC the computer will not allow transfer as the stamp on the file i am transferring from my Z2 eg - DSC_0001 is already present on the PC from a previous transfer. This means i have to rename all the PC files first.
I hope this makes sense and hopefully there is an easy fix.
I am new to Android and overall i am very happy with the operating system, being a massive improvement generally over my previous phones. Fingers crossed this is down to my lack of knowledge and just involves a settings change somewhere.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi.
The case you described is right. But it´s not a bug.
Why don´t you organise your pics/vids on your desktop with picasa for example. There you have many tools, also to rename your files, so that the filename contains the creation date.
Or you use a cloud solution like dropbox, google+ or amazon clouddrive to sync pics/vids from your phone automatically.
But never use the built-in sony playmemories. It´s really slow, pics are down-scaled to 1280x720 and vids are not synced. It´s the worst cloud-service for pics I´ve seen.

How do I get photos back for contacts that got lost when contacts transferred to new iPhone 4S?

I went in to the Apple store ot get help betting my data & all transferred from my old phone or Outlook to my new phone. They used a device that Verizon uses which apparently is the same type used to get contacts from one cell phone to the next--not a smart phone apparently.
I've got dup contacts now--maybe because the way it was synced with my MacBookPro after converting the contacts. I already had most of my contacts converted over. OK, I can compare & delete dups when I have time.
But I also noticed later that the photos that i had for a # of my contacts all seem to be missing. Is there a way to get them back?
I thought of doing what I did with the calendars which was to delete the ones from the Mac & iPhone & then sync the iPhone to Outlook in Windows inBootcamp on my MacBookPro.
But then I'm afraid I would either have more dup contacts or if I deleted them 1st, I would have to somehow restore a group of contacts that I only used for email & so except for a couple of them or so in the group, they were not in Outlook or my WinMob phone. I suppose that there is a way that I could somehow retrieve just that group from my Time Machine backup, but I'm not sure how to do that.
Also in the transfer, none of the photos got transferred. They weren't mostly super important, but I am realizing now that I would like to have them. Maybe I could just connect the old phone to Bootcamp & copy the photos from the phone to the C drive & then drag them over to the mac side & then learn how to get photos into iPhone contacts.
Any suggestions on best ways to deal with this?

Yes, I think that I should be able to easily get them from Bootcamp (which I have also set up as a virtual machine in Parallels 5) to the Mac side. When I moved from Dell I just brought just about all my stuff from my Dell--I think by copying them to my external back up drive & then connecting that to my Mac & copying it to Windows 7 & then dragging it over to the Mac side. I think that is how I did it.
Back then I couldn't figure out any way to sync my Windows mobile phone with my Mac (althogh an iPhone can sync with Windows & Outlook--& I probaby should have used that to get all my pda data transferred. That was how I got my pda data into Outlook 2007 in bootcamp--by syncing with my phone.
I suppose probably Apple forums would be a better place to ask this. I'm over there now asking about Apple ID (beware to set yours up right. different apple products have differnt requirements. My ID used to be this user name. iCloud requires an email address so the Apple guy helping me made that change. But then iTunes registration tells me my password is invalid--even though it is valid to log into One to One & btw, I highly reccomend getting a One to One contract for all the wonderful training they offer for only $99/yr. I see the rules, they have the typical current rules many do, at least 8 characters & at least 1 upper case & 1 lower case & 1 numeral. My current one missed on 1 of those points & I don't know where to change it & iTunes just rejects it--doesn't take me to where i can change it--unless maybe I can say forgot password or something, but I haven't.
OK; I guess I should try that. Thanks for your help!

Wooo.....
I think the gist of your solution is in your last paragraph. I just got my first Mac, a MacBook Pro (a 17", quite a machine). If you move your pics over in Boot Camp, can you access them from the Mac side? If so, maybe you could set the contacts' photos in the Mac's contacts, then sync them to the phone with iCloud, maybe?
I know it can't be that easy, but it may be a place to start...

Add Curent Date & Time to PDF when Printed

This is my first post so please excuse any ignorance.
Basically we are in the process of creating electronic copies of SOP’s and putting them on our file server for all staff to access. Due to regulations, when these SOP’s are printed they would need to have the current date and time in which the SOP was printed, ideally like a watermark faded diagonally across the page but even if it was something on the bottom or top this would also do the trick.
It should read "Only Valid on Date of Printing - <Current Date><Current Time>
Could somebody please tell me if something like this is possible by incorporating JavaScript into the PDF.
Any assistance I would be grateful.
Thanks.
Keith.

Data on phone lost when updating software

I have a 3gs - when i get prompted by itunes to update software my phone freezes after the process and I get locked onto the insert usb cable screen. I have to restore to last setting to get it going again which takes hours. can you help please. latest prompt is to update to 4.3.3
I need to download an app that requires 4.2 software update

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
I am confused as to how a download of DTM would cause this. Downloading DTM to your PC does nothing but download an installation file to your PC. You must launch that installation file in order for anything else to happen...and then do even more in order to cause what you have described. So I am confused as to exactly what you have done.
In any event, if your BB has been somehow wiped clean, then the only way to get your data back is if you already have previously taken a backup. If you have never done that, then there is no hope.

ISSUE: Visual Glitches created when file transferring with Project Manager.

I am color grading a feature film in DaVinci and the person who edited the film only logged the footage in premiere and not even all of it. So, as far as I know, the only simple solution is to use project manager to transfer all the files with their in project labels and duplicates with unique names. BUT, when I do this, I end up with visual glitches all over the transferred files. Some are minor and others are huge and for multiple frames. I have no idea what could be causing this or what I could do to fix it. Please help, I have a very close deadline and need to get this resolved!
